Ramasastry appointed to ULC

Anita Ramasastry, the UW Law Foundation Professor of Law at the University of Washington School of Law, has been appointed to serve a two year term as Chair of the Executive Committee of the Uniform Law Commission (ULC). The ULC is a nonprofit entity, formed in 1892, to create nonpartisan state legislation. More than 350 commissioners – lawyers, judges, law professors, legislative staff, and others – work together without compensation to draft laws ranging from the Uniform Commercial Code to acts on property, trusts and estates, family law, criminal law, and other areas where uniformity of state law is desirable. The Executive Committee is the governing body of the ULC, and is responsible for implementing the polices adopted by the ULC at its meeting. (end)
